Welp…. Looks like the Democratic Socialists in Vermont learned nothing from the 2024 election that saw massive public opposition to their Clean Heat Carbon Tax, which played a starring role in the shellacking they took the hands of the voters. Today the House Democrats voted near party line (by my count only four broke ranks) ... Read more

People have gotten used to the idea that Google’s metrics are the alpha and omega of everything related to web traffic. This is an institutional lie accepted after years of a monopoly on search. Google’s search algorithms serve one purpose. To optimize ad revenue for Google. Actual traffic results may vary, but our previous hosting ... Read more

Why would our Senators not support the Save America Act? New Hampshire requires a photo ID and Proof of citizenship to vote.  Do they feel that other states shouldn’t also have to require these simple safeguards? If so, why? Do the Senators support MEN playing in women’s sports? If so, why? Do the Senators really ... Read more

Despite cultural advances in our direction on Campuses and in the corporate world, at least on paper, there is still a lot of work to be done on the question of whether men can be women and women men.

Nashua’s Selective Enforcement of “Shall” There’s a phrase often attributed, loosely and somewhat inaccurately, to Karl Marx: power without ideology. Whether or not Marx ever said it in those exact words, the concept is unmistakable: power exercised without consistent principle, without accountability, and without any obligation to apply rules evenly. That idea is playing out in real time ... Read more

As predicted, there was plenty of strident debate on HB1602 (creating a safe battery recycling stewardship program) before the House recessed for lunch.  Mr. McGuire made an excellent 8-minute speech in favor of moving it to an interim study.  I encourage everyone to listen to it, though I’m aware that asking for 8 minutes of ...

I take umbrage with the idea of taxes as an investment.

Even just your own pocket is likely to produce better results in both the short and long term ... Read more

It’s no secret that our country is deeply divided today. One side applauds our president and his efforts to keep our citizens safe and make our country stronger.

People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (MEK) is a parasitic anomaly. To call them Iranian is a tactical error and a historical lie.
